The Olympics are so fun...
If you haven't seen it yet (I'm not sure how you could avoid it) go over to nbcolympics.com right now and watch the world-record shattering 4x100 free relay effort from yesterday/last night. 5 teams in the event eclipsed the previous world record and the US and French teams both surpassed it by more than 3.9 seconds (with the USA ever so narrowly winning by 8 hundredths of a second). The finish was so close, with the USA coming from behind, that it made for very fun watching for the American audience. Watching it live as it happened, I was thinking, there's no way. When Cullen got out-sprinted that first 50 of the third leg, I thought the difference was insurmountable. Jason Lezak's final split (46.06!!!!) was simply outrageous and one of the most memorable Olympic moments I can remember. Congratulations to the whole team on a fantastic race and a gold-medal win!
